Bernal Proposes Priority Civil Rights Bill for Texas
Sen Joe Bernal plans a personal priority civil rights bill for the 1971 session. It would create a Texas Human Relations Commission with investigatory power, replace the governor’s ad hoc committee, and set clear enforcement against discrimination across employment housing public services and education. The measure aims to extend federal civil rights protections at the state level and faces a tough path to passage.
